TIE NEW 70 RK GIRLS STYLE.


There Is an air OF chic and style ABOUT the New.
Yorker which Is unmstakabe. IL distinguishes her
at once from the modest Bostonian and the aspiring
Philadelphia. and stamps her as somebody IN what
part Of the wOrli she may be. The clothes
she wears not different in cut or material from
those that other American girls IN the same clrcum-
stances possess. rue. she spends an alarming sum
annually upon her TaVishng toilets but then Priscla
Faneu, Of Beacon street, and Martha Penn, of Kit
tenhOuse square, would show very much the same
extraV sance their little account books could DO
e. examined. But the NEWCOMER has a decd u adj
vantage. Her 1.-THE and supple figure lends Itself
IcliIlV to Stt lie arnlcn,. however AfOtc-Eus
or strange and transforms it at once from carica-
ture into the most elegant thing Imaginable. what
ever she puts on becomes her. Huge hats, when
stagger fashionable in other cities, have pc
cular grace and charm on the heads OF the stately
beauties who promenade Fifth avenue. High boDnets
cease to be ridiculous, and the man who loves 10
crack cruel Jokes about the absurdity OF modern
headgcar is silent when he sees the bewnchIng ei'
feet Of lofty quilts and ribbons surm0untng an arch
and pquant face. The Tremendous tournure which
looks so exaggerated anywhere else, suddenly strikes
us a. a picturesque and beautiful addition to the
dra peries Of silk and tulle. No other women can APP
proach her in style. -, -,
The famous French miliiners VOW that their worb
becomes "A pleasure when the daughter OF New
York millionaire puts herself into their hands with
carte blanche They can turn her out divine being
without rival on earth, for what nature has Tor
gotten to the way Of beauty art can very readily

4 TYPICAL CASE.

Or. Wr. 4. Hammond IN Popular Science Monthly
Not very long ago lady oil tnls cily Drought her
little daughter, twelve years OF age To see me pro-
tessonaliy The child on her way 10 school, and
lad with her large satchel full OF books. She was
pale tall and thin. The muscles OF her face twitched
convulsivey, and she could not keep her hands and
feet still She suffering from chores, or St Nitus
dance. and in addition, had almost constant headache
and other symptoms Of nervous arrangement. In the
course OF my examination ! asked her To empty her
satchel OF the books il contained, and which, as she
informed me- she had been studyin that morning aud
the night before This is the list:
l. An English grammar. =. scholars companion
g. An arithmetic. 1. geography. D. history
OF the United States IT, An elementary guide to
astronomy. 7. temperance physiology and hygiene
whatever that may be- ;. "A method oil learning
French. 9. A French reading book. 80
Nine in all-nine dfierent subjects of knowledge
,hch that poor child was required To study between
the hours OF in the afternoon OF one day and in
the morning OF the following day Allowing one hour
for dinner, halt hour tor breakfast, an hour Tor
undressing at night and dressing iii the morning, an
hour tor going home and returning to school and
eight hours tor sleep land less than this will not
suffice tor growing boy girl-t had better be nine
or ten and have six hours and half lett III
,hch TO study nine different branches OF learning
Now suppose either one OF you ladies and gentleman
should retire quiet nook and, with your we'll
developed aud trained bIains and experienced minds
should try to study nine unfamiliar subjects OF know
edge III six hours and "a half, would you think 1t
strange at the end OF that time you should somewhat
mix matters, and imagine that Hong Kong is the name
OF lunar Volcano that the Continental Congress is
one OF the parts OF speech. and that the ductus CON-
NUNS choedechus is situated on Passamaquoddy
Bay She showed no such confusion OF ideas. She
had studied her lessons well, but she had done so at
the expense OF her BRAN substance. In little while,
and English grammar biographies ana temperance
physologes would have beeu like the I" subsequent
proceedings in Bill Nye's poem; they would have
Interested her no more" say that she had learned
her lessons at the expense OF her brain substance.
This Is no flower OF speech, but sober tact very
simple examination enabled me to satisfy myself that
she was living her brain capital instead OF her brain
income. Her expenditures were greater than ner
receipts and brain bankruptcy staring her in the

Let me join with Mabel in giving

No wonder that men who go in these

They are disgusted with them. Not all,
of course. but too many are.
Now. let me tell you what man
wants wife for. In the first place to
love her, and in return to be loved. In
the next place he wants her for help
mate. In case of sickness who can do
more than loving wife? When you are
sick, Mr.. Bachelor, a wife comes in very
handy. In health all are friends, but in
sickness none are to be depended on ex.
cept your wife and mother.

will know how to get your hubby q de-

more of you for knowing that much
he hasn't any heart.
Remember that some are rich to-day
and poor tomorrow. When fortune has

A Ride with a Corpse.

s'See that mani" said q Cincinnati
sport on the way to the prize fight the
other morning. ellis name is Doc Fem
messy. He is of good family, but went
to the dogs through dissipation. Fen
messy committed the most horrible muir
der on record. He invited man out
one afternoon to take a ride with him,
aud foully murdered him. After the
deed he drove around Cincinnati with
the corpse sitting beside him in a buggy,
stopping in several barrooms, and finally
got very drunk.
''He then visited the different medical
colleges and offered the stiff to them for
$3, but none of them would give even 81
for the SUBJECT, and Fsnnessy took him
home, put him to bed and actually slept
with him. The following night he took
the dead man to the outskirts of the city
and tied him to o post. The murder
was great mystery, and the police
worked on the case for many weeks
before they traced it down TO Fennessy.
"His family, who had previously dis.
owned him. came to his rescue, en-
ployed the most eminent counsel and
spent fortune to save his neck. I
don't know exactly how he got of, but
II WAS through some technicality."

KILLED A BEAR.
The Adventures Of q Wemam
WhO Could Use . Rifle.


One day last week Mrs. Overbaugb,
the wife OF farmer residing three miies
from Shandaken. Ulster county, New
York, left her home to pay visit to q
neighbor living mile away. Her road
lay through dense wood among the
widest part of the Catskill mountains.
and after sne had walked . short dis.
tance she saw little in advance of her
what she at first supposed to q large
Newfoundland dog, bpt which, on closer
inspection, proved to be bear. Mrs.
Overbaugh ran back to her home, and
taking her husbands rifle and few
charges of ammunition, again started on
her way. At nearly the same spot she
found the bear which, though not
aggressive in his department, showed no
desire to yield the road.
Mrs. Overbaugh walked on until with.
in twenty-five yards of the animal when
she took aim and blazed away. The
bear, although not killed, was evidently
seriously wounded. The woman lost no
time in reloading and fired again. The
last shot entered the head Just above
the eyes, killing the bear instantly. The
bear when dressed weighed 256 pounds.
Mrs. Overbaugh intends having his skin
dressed as proof of her prowess. The
exhibition of her skill and courage has
made her quite o heroine in the district,
although this is by no means the first
occasion when she has proved her skill
as markswoman. Bears are unusually
numerous in the Calskills this year.
